Arriscado 2022 Cuentaviñas

An image of Dionysus himself, Arriscado is frisky, fruity, fresh and fun, yet rooted in poised, crystalline depth. The abundance of pear, pineapple and just-picked papaya aromas are followed by a hint of real almond marzipan. On taking a sip, the gorgeously creamy, silky, eiderdowny texture makes you desire to wrap yourself in it, bathe in it, retreat into it from the cares of the world a while, and dream…or dance. Run through with celebratory joie-de-vivre, and yet with a gravitas that calls you to attention, it reminds you that it is something to be savoured, not glugged. It’s as good as an awesome Montrachet…no, forget that, it’s way better. Indescribably glorious—you’ll just have to try it.
